Not as advertised for English speakers

Mallory_D, Mar 2024

I’ve never given a bad review before, but I don’t want other non-Portuguese speakers to go on this tour and have a less than awesome time because they didn’t get what they paid for. If you like hiking, it’s worth going on for the experience of seeing the waterfalls (which are indeed beautiful!). Two issues: - There is very little English translation (and at times, none), which is not what is advertised. - With that in mind, it’s overpriced for English speakers. Firstly: I don’t expect anyone in Brazil to speak English, unless it’s their job. In this case, the tour is *advertised* as such. The tour guide started off translating into English and then just stopped like an hour in. He was giving long, detailed histories for minutes at a time in Portuguese and then… nothing. That was moderately annoying at first, but it became a serious problem once we were on the trail. The English speakers were put in our own group for translation. Then the guide who spoke English inexplicably decided to go with a Portuguese-speaking group instead, leaving us with a local trail guide who spoke zero English. It was a safety issue because we needed instructions about which way to go, what we should avoid, etc. If you just want to see some waterfalls, it’s overpriced, because it’s a round trip bus ticket, a lunch (albeit, a delicious one), and pretty minimal attention from a tour guide. I say it’s a bus ticket instead of a tour because there were 20 people in my group, and English speakers are basically ignored. To put that into perspective, a round-trip bus ticket to Presidente Figueirado is 70 Reis, which is about $15. A similar lunch in Manaus would be around $4.

Easy tour that goes to waterfall highlights

Weiqiang_L, Dec 2023

This tour used a small bus and had 9 people - one of the smaller groups out there. We went to three clusters of waterfalls. The last one - Iracema - was the most impressive, together with a grotto complex. There was a very short stretch of a jungle walk too. Lunch was included and was delicious. The rains had just descended in the morning so the waterfalls were full. The entire tour took about 10 hours, with the first 3 picking up people. Guide (Miguel) was informative and spoke some English. He also helped us take pictures. Overall it was a good day

Don't go unless you speak Portuguese

Oleg_G, Oct 2023

Unfortunately, i cannot recommend this to anyone who doesn't speak Portuguese. Although guide does have some English, they don't really bother to explain anything except bare logistics of the trip. As a result, for whole day you just listen to whole group recieving information and not understanding anything. Very annoying, especially since tour advertized as English speaking. And speaking of tour description, don't believe what they said about duration. Guide showed up 30 minutes before we we were told to expect them (insisted we go now, missing breakfast); and tour ended at 5.30 instead of listed 2 pm. For us not a big deal, but for someone with evening plans, an issue i assume.

A lost day and money

Robert_K, Apr 2023

We booked the tour understanding it was 6 hours and we had to be ready between 7 and 9 am. We were delayed getting off the ship, but we’re in the terminal at 8:45. Our guide had left at 8:30. He sent another car that arrest 9:45. When we got in he asked when we had to get back . We told him 3pm. He told us it was an 8 hour tour driving 2 hours each way. We had him drive around the block and drop us off at the terminal. Not our best tour. The main problem was the listing. Also no one checked the information we included on the booking form. Lost $140 and a day.

We had an amazing day at Presidente Figueredo waterfalls . The guide was very friendly and took care of all our needs . The place itself is astonishingly beautiful and speaks for itself . The company is responsible and they’ll make sure you will have a perfect experience. Highly recommend
